What a Coincidence

Recently, in our US history reading, John and I learned of Hector St. John de Crevecoeur, a map maker, surveyor, farmer, writer, soldier, and government official in Colonial America.

This past week I read The Lake of Dead Languages, which included a character named India Crevecoeur, the elderly matriarch of a wealthy mill town family.

Yesterday I picked up a color chart of Martha Stewart's new Home Depot line of paints and there, with the darker green-y neutrals, is a beautiful browned olive called Crevecoeur.

I wonder where it will pop up next?
